At least he didn't pull down someone's shorts to their ankles in the box like one of our first choice CBs. Brilliant verts, brilliant (but only coz it wasn't given)
So many goals tonight. The C1C is better than the League! Fulham have turned it round with our two former strikers scoring. City have scored 5.
3-0, Chadli. Defoe assist. Not sure why Tonev got taken off. Looked good for about 15 minutes right before he was pulled. Odd.
Thor consults the Oracle and it's 0-3. That'll do me nicely Spurs thank you. For the first time this season I'm totally content.
Holtby had to put in Defoe there. His apologetic face frustrates me, probably because it comes out too often!
Another from JD. 2 goals in every start this season, albeit against rubbish teams. Start against Chelsea surely?
You'd think AVB would have brought him off in that case? I would welcome him to start though, just to show a) form is rewarded b) there are no favourites c) he is not no.2 striker
Starting against Chelsea in the league is different than starting against Villa in a cup. I'd stick with Bobby Sol. 0-4 in the last minute? Somehow I thought last minute but I'd have been happy with 0-3. Why can't we score like this in the league then we'd take off?
Lovely jubbly Yet another cleansheet and another cup game drenched in goals for us. You can say we haven't had the toughest games but we could have hardly done any better in these early stages. As I said at halk time, Sandro and Lamela have got to be in the starting line up on Saturday and Holtby and Defoe must be knocking on the door too.
